  • Exploring Spatial Aspects of Quality of Life in Galway City, Ireland
    F. Fahy & M. Ó Cinnéide, Int. J. Sus. Dev. Plann. Vol. 3, No. 1 (2008) 29–44 THE REALITY OF THE LOCALITY: EXPLORING SPATIAL ASPECTS OF QUALITY OF LIFE IN GALWAY CITY, IRELAND F. FAHY & M. Ó CINNÉIDE Department of Geography, National University of Ireland, Galway, Ireland. ABSTRACT Quality of life is increasingly recognised as a vital component of sustainable urban development. Indicators are used to assess quality of life and to monitor progress towards sustainability over time. An emerging body of literature contends that these indicators need to be derived in close consultation with target populations in order to optimise the extent to which they capture the real determinants of quality of life in particular places. Furthermore, quality of life considerations vary signifi cantly across urban neighbourhoods and consequently the spatial scale at which such studies are conducted may have signifi cant implications for the results obtained. This study focuses on spatial variations in quality of life in Galway, a city of approximately 70,000 people, situated on the west coast of Ireland. Galway is reported as having an exceptionally high quality of life, how- ever, signifi cant variations are found to exist across city neighbourhoods. Factors contributing to this spatial pattern are explored in this paper. An important lesson emerging from this study is that quality of life indicators derived at the neighbourhood level are of utmost importance when assessing the reality of living in different urban settings. Keywords: Ireland, quality of life indicators, scale, sustainable urban communities. 1 INTRODUCTION Economic growth and development have taken place at an unprecedented rate in the Republic of Ireland, over the past decade or so.

In February 2014 Galway has was crowned Europe’s Micro city of the Year by the Financial Times. Known for its festivals, music and bars, the city is a vibrant, fun-loving city. Conveniently, history and leisure combine here: the pubs, many of which retain their original, huge fireplaces and other Gothic features, are the best place to get a feel for the medieval city. As the capital of the Gaelic West – it’s the only city in the country where you might possibly hear Irish spoken on the streets. Galway is the only coastal city in Ireland that really seems to open up to the sea, and its docks sit side by side the compact city centre, as you’re constantly reminded by salty breezes and seagulls. The jewel in the city’s crown, the long, pedestrianised main drag of William, Shop, High and Quay Streets, becomes a lively, Mediterranean-style promenade during summer, lined with pub and restaurant tables.

  • Review of Galway's Culture 21
    REVIEW OF GALWAY’S CULTURE 21: ACTIONS SELF-ASSESSMENT MAY 2016 This document provides an overview of the discussions that emerged in response to the Culture 21: Actions Self-Assessment conducted throughout a day-long workshop, hosted in Galway on the 6th April 2016. The workshop followed on a public event, attended by over eighty local stakeholders, including presentations by Jordi Pascual, Clymene Christoforou, Catherine Cullen and Dr Beatriz Garcia. These presentations provided; a background on the vision and ambitions behind Culture 21 Actions (Jordi Pascual); the role of Culture Action Europe (Clymene Christoforou); the experience and legacy of Lille as host of the 2004 European Capital of Culture (Catherine Cullen ); and the experience of Liverpool as 2008 European Capital of Culture (Dr Beatriz Garcia). The exercise took place in the context of the initial workshop of the Pilot Cities Europe programme in Galway and was meant to inform the design of a work programme which, in 2016 and 2017, will enable the city to address some of the weaknesses identified and build on its perceived strengths. As suggested by the Terms of Reference of the Pilot Cities Europe programme, the initial workshop involved a diverse group of participants, including representatives of different areas of local government, civil society activists and private organisations. A full list of participants has been included in Annex 1. In the course of the workshop, participants evaluated Galway’s current status as regards the nine ‘Commitments’ or thematic areas that make up Culture 21 Actions. The exercise also enables cities to compare their assessment with the average ratings provided by a global panel of experts, which assessed the situation of the items included in Culture 21 Actions in mid-2015.
